Photo ID: 113705 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, April 19, 2026 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed CO-72 Arvada, CO 59 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Rocky Flats Industrial Lead (UP) Union Pacific A lot of construction has happened southeast of the CO-93/CO-72 intersection. The Rocky Flats Industrial Lead passes right through the middle of construction. The construction done to date has dealt with a retaining pond and leveling of the ground. Two new roads have also been built through the area. 92nd Lane has not yet had a grade crossing built across the lead, as seen in this shot, just south of CO-72.

The new asphalt has been laid on either siding of the grade crossing. But, as you can also see, the existing grade crossing (stop lights) are going to need to be widened in order to complete the widening.

The old stop light that protects the grade crossing on Colorado Highway 72 is going to need to be widened as the highway is being widened to twice its previous width here.

Photo ID: 111889 Date Shot Photo By Friday, March 7, 2025 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed CO-72 Arvada, CO 272 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Rocky Flats Industrial Lead (UP) Union Pacific A 20 to 30 foot section of the Rocky Spur is missing just south (west) of the CO-72 grade crossing. This is likely due to the commercial construction taking place in the area. This means that the five covered hoppers you see in the distance are currently completely isolated as the track is also severed near the CO-93 grade crossing.

A trash truck and two cars wait patiently for the slow-going train to clear the crossing. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
